Rains and hails affected the major parts of the city such as industries,
homesteads among others.

management response.
The North river has not flooded in over 100 years, therefore this
incident was not planned for an immediate large scale action.

The floods has severely impacted the flow of traffic as roads are damaged.
Police and other authorities help in directing the traffic to safe routes.
The bad condition of the traffic will remain the same until restoration happens.
EVACUATION PLAN
Floods are normally accompanied by cold weather that can lead to health
problems.
The government established a medical plan that covered injuries and health
problems that might arise such as pneumonia and cholera.
Health officials were deployed in the area as a response to possible escalation of
health issues
These health officials also helped to treat injuries caused by the incident.
DEMOBILIZATION PLAN
command will assign rescue and recovery teams to work with city officials and
account for all displaced citizens.
Hazmat crews will respond to the industrial areas to assess damage to the
buildings and contain/cleanup any hazardous materials
Crews will restore power to Mertzville and provide generators to critical areas
where power can not be restored immediately.
SHOULD THERE BE NATIONAL STANDARDS FOR
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OPERATIONS PLANS
AT LARGE SCALE SPORTING EVENTS?
Large scale sporting events breed grounds for worst disasters (Jensen & Jessica,
2008).
The large number of people in these stadiums lead to increase the number of
injured or killed people in case of disaster.
It is crucial to have national standards for emergency management plans for large
scale events, not just sporting events
This move will help mitigate risks and casualties during said events
